To be totally honest, I feel a little insecure introducing this week’s awesomepreneur we love. Diana De Luna is a comedian, writer, performer (and you’re not) so funny that I can do little more than giggle and drool while trying to sum up her heartwork. Diana’s used to that, though: before she made the move [...]

Our final tip in a glorious week of guest awesomepreneurs comes from Amanda Abella of Grad Meets World. Amanda is a freelance writer and coach for millenials who want to lead kickass lives (yes, please!) and help others do the same (pretty please!). How does she do it?

Today’s tip comes from Sarah MacDougall of Gigi & Poocha, a stationery design boutique that is not doing any favors for my wedding fever. (But, seriously, though–have you seen the save the dates on this girl? Someone toss a bouquet my way!) For more on why we’re head over heels for Sarah’s heartwork, check out [...]
So…affirmations. Do they work? I touched on affirmations this summer in my RKA in LA post, My Love/Hate Relationship With Positive Psychology.
